Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Saturday inaugurated two swimming pools at Delhi government schools and said students of state-run and private schools can register to get access from April 1. Manish Sisodia, who also holds the education portfolio, said that with the addition of these two new pools, Delhi government schools now have 24 “state-of-the-art” swimming pools.
The minister said that currently students from government schools go to learn swimming at private schools where they are charged heavily.
"But from April 1, both government school students as well as private school students will get swimming coaching for free at these pools in Delhi government schools. All Delhi students are invited to register themselves here. We have well-trained coaches at these pools to provide training to the budding swimmers," he said.
The swimming pools are located at the Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalaya (SKV) Mayur Vihar and SKV Mandawali. Sisodia claimed that government school infrastructure and facilities therein are no less than that of any international universities like Harvard and Oxford.
